Mirror Dinghy Plans

admin — Thu, 28 May 2009 14:56:03 +0000

I had a mirror years ago and would like to build one. Does anyone know where to get a set of plans? I don’t want to buy a kit just the plans as I am in the USA and would like to build from scratch.

Thank you for any assistance anyone may afford me.

Mirror spinnaker setup

Hi,

I just bought a spinnaker sail, ali spinnaker pole and a spinnaker mast connector. I have sailed my mirror with and without jib on the mainsail, but have no idea of how to fit this spinnaker or where to put the pole or where to fit the spinnacre fitting on the mast, or even where to fit ropes on the sail itself, any ideas if there is a web site on how to fit and sail mirror spinnaker?

I’m thinking of buying a Mirror dinghy as a first boat. Can they be transported on a car roof (Ford Galaxy) or will I need a road trailer and where would be the best place to get one. Also can they be used on the sea (at the beach) or are they only suitable for inland waters? Any advice greatfully received Jim

Mirror Rigging

About 20 years ago I sailed a laser but work put a stop to my hobbies this year I have come back to sailing I am now retired . I have a mirror which I sail every week at Hillingdon sailing club. I have recently read that the main sheet can now be cleated at the front in the same way as the laser. I ask the committee at Hillingdon if it would be ok to do the same with my boat, I was told that I need to find out about measurements. Do you have any info for changing a 1970′s mirror from the traditional fitting of the main sheet to the new forward fitting of the main sheet
